Russia, China and Pakistan propose draft resolution for ceasefire in Middle East

UNITED NATIONS: Russia, China and Pakistan have proposed a draft UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in the Middle East, ahead of an emergency UNSC session, Reuters reports.

It is not immediately clear when it can be put to a vote.

The three countries circulated the draft text, said diplomats, and asked members to share their comments by Monday evening.

A resolution needs at least nine votes in favour and no vetoes by the United States, France, Britain, Russia or China to pass.
